Bluesky adds mentions tab in the notifications screen and username squatting protection

Social network Bluesky has released a new update to its app that includes a separate mentions tab in notifications, protections against username squatting, and new controls for replies sorting.

The company announced that it is adding a new mentions tab with the v1.96 rollout to let you see those posts separately. Until now, all notifications were under one tab.

Bluesky is also adding a way to display replies under a post. Users can choose between linear and threaded views. They can also sort replies using different filters like hot, oldest, newest, most-liked, and random.
